Soccer Juggling Records

Perhaps you have seen the amazing Mr. Woo perform his juggling routine during the intermission at a stadium near you. The guy makes a living keeping a ball from hitting a ground. You can see his act in the video above. Pretty remarkable. While Mr. Woo might be the best performer out there, he is not a record holder when it comes to juggling a football.

That distinction belongs to Nikolai Kutsenko of Ukraine who juggled a ball without it ever touching the ground for 24.5 hours straight.

There is also Dr. Jan Skorkovsky, who ran a marathon while juggling a ball. It only took him 7:18 to complete the course.

The record for running 100 meters while keeping up a soccer ball belongs to Manfred Wagner of Switzerland. He clocked in at 15.9 seconds back in 1996. He’d beat Ronaldo in a race.

It is not often that a world record belongs to someone from Kosovo but when it comes to running up and down stairs while heading a soccer ball, Agim Agushi is the king of the world. He spent over an hours waling up 1920 steps and walking down 1869 steps. There is no truth to the rumor that his image will be featured on the currency of Kosovo.

Finally, there is a guy from India who holds the world record for balancing a ball on the head. He did it for 12 hours straight and then probably spent the next 36 days at the chiropractors office.
